The following article describes the use of the material.uniElastoPlastic command. This command defines a uniaxial elastoplastic material.

[edit] Syntax

material.uniElastoPlastic(id,E,|nu,|rho,|aT,|sy,|Hiso,|Hkin,|eta)

where

Parameter	description	type	default
id	The material id	integer	-
E	Young's modulus	float	-
nu	Poisson's ratio	float	0.
rho	Density	float	0.
aT	Thermal coefficient	float	0.
sy	Yield stress	float	0.
Hiso	Isotropic hardening nodulus	float	0.
Hkin	Kinematic hardening nodulus	float	0.
eta	Viscocity parameter	float	0.

Create a uniaxial elastoplastic material.
